	Yes and no, dear lady.  You're thinking of angels, not saints.  The
latter are mortal beings taken into Heaven and glorified while the former
are God's messengers to the material world.  Different jobs.
	My comment was really a light hearted, state of mind snark about
people who expect miracles on a daily basis.

I think God already does this: pagans name them as various deities,
Catholics call them saints. Everybody specializes, and the miracles get done
faster and at lower cost!
